woman he had befriended while married to his wife.
He had been so ashamed of this that he had paid for silence and for the woman to deny everything. A secret kept even from Salac, until now.
Salac was in his early twenties now a couple of years older than Ravelon.
So his last wish was granted. Salac became King and after several months of tension between his half-brother, they became close.
Salac had trained well academically, but not in the art of organising armies or strategies. He had dedicated his life to healing and spiritual wellbeing. Through a year of peace he built up lands helped people and used taxes into health and education. The country became gentle but well civilised.
However the barbarians from the neighbouring country Asandle had been skirmishing between each other, concentrating on their own battles. The ruthless dark forces of the undead had risen to extreme power through ruthless force and now had won it’s own country’s civil war. A powerful and deadly force turned on Carlexon (Salac’s country)
It was a complete shock for salac, the villagers were left fighting with little skills they had and the small inexperience protection of his Army were wipped out in days.
Ravelon was seeing his brother go mad, he was praying and calling on people to believe in the power of the Gods.
People were believing him and they were just getting slaughtered.
One night Ravelon went to challenge his brother to try and talk some sense into him., Salac was in his royal room staring out the window at the stars.
“Brother Salac, you need to do something we are being slaughtered, you need some resistance let me train some armies quickly.”
“Have faith Ravelon.”
As he spoke he quickly looked over as if he knew what was about to happen. The rope which attached the king’s sword above the throne somehow snapped and through some weird coincidence came crashing down blade first and lodged into the back of the king’s head killing him instantly in a bizarre freak of nature accident.
“Brother?” Ravelon screamed.
Ravelon held Salac in his arms, crying.
After the funeral Ravelon became the new king. It was a hard time with recent events. He needed to form an army fast to crush the undead and restore peace.
This is when five gods spoke to him in a dream and they sent a mortal to represent each to become the five elders.

Seren
Prida
Brawa
Justan
Foran

Each were represented mortal brought a book which was given as a gift to Ravelon.
The book of Seren, The book of Prida etc.
These books were the holy sacred books.
With this came a joint doctrine drawn up to encourage a new order.; The Empire.
The Empire was formed to protect the country and restore peace and law throughout the land,
The council of representatives was set up. They represented the peoples values and questions to be put forward to the King. With the help of the Gods Ravelon was able to defeat the undead and became a powerful but noble king loved by his people.
That’s where the story should have ended, but the God’s started accusing Seren of being evil and influencing through forbidden arts. They accused Seren of indirectly killing Selec.
Seren had already insisted her innocence and that her true purpose was to fulfil or help a prophecy from a higher God from them all, who she refused to name.
Seren was banished by the other four and her book was banned and locked away with her in the sacred temple hidden to mankind.
Seren was now a blasphemous word and a forbidden religion or God to follow.

Selec’s bloodline continued as did Ravelon’s running parallel to each other, but it was always Ravelon’s who were king’s or queens.
The children of many generations to come of Selec became suspicious of the four Gods and continued to side with their true God Seren, They were hunted down and killed throughout history in many great battles and stories. The Selec’s had followers and they believed in avenging his death which was caused by the false Gods and that they were influencing the Empire for some other purpose. Of course this is unfounded and one of the key tasks involved in the Empire is to wipe them out.
The prophecies are Seren are unknown but Salac’s followers claim to know them. They are hidden away unread by any mortal of present times and rumour and old folklore are all we know about it. It is forbidden to read this book now and the Empire will be punished.


The book ended very abruptly Jacoa thought and it was all basic and vague, but nether the less he decided it was a thought provoking and inspirational read. He had already found out about small parts but this seemed to fill in the gaps. He closed the books and signed the paperwork to be accepted into the Empire.
